Introduction

谷歌地图抓取工具 is one of the most popular scraping services offered by Outscraper. It allows you to extract public data from Google Maps without any limitations easily and in this tutorial we will be discussing how to get started with Google Maps Scraping using Outscraper.

Here at Outscraper, we always take care of our customers and make some minor updates to the design to make it a more user-friendly and easy-to-use platform. To get the most out of Google Maps Data Scraper, the parameters and filters need to be set accurately.

The platform also offers new enrichment services to take data scraping to the next level. We encourage our users to read this “Getting Started” guide about all these settings before creating a task. Aside from our most popular scraping service, Google Maps Data Scraper, we also offer some new scraping services and new enrichments to improve your scraping activities and be productive with your business.

基本参数

One of the most critical settings to scrape the correct targeted businesses/places in the Outscraper platform is the basic parameters. Using accurate parameters reduces irrelevant and duplicate records in the result file. We have made some minor changes in the design of the Google Maps Scraper.

Outscraper’s Dashboard

In the previous version of Google Maps Scraper, the description reads “Allows scraping places data from Google Maps. It contains links to the Pricing, Product Page, and Tutorials. In the previous version, you can Categories or plain queries. You can also search for a specific location, country, and custom location using ZIP codes.

Meanwhile, in the newest version of Google Maps Scraper, the description reads “Extract places data from Google Maps. It still contains the links to the Pricing, Product Page, and Tutorials but added a new link for API Docs. We also added some new icons for the tutorial links and added an option wherein you can choose to choose Google Maps Scraper as one of your favorite features of Outscraper by clicking the Yellow Star icon.

基本参数

除了基本参数中的类别外，位置、限制和重复选项也必须设置清楚。

类别

选择类别: Google Maps has more than 5,000 categories. These categories are available as a ready-made list on the dashboard.

You can select any categories from the list directory or use the Exact Match option that will ignore other categories that Google might add. The Custom categories are no longer available as another option in the Categories section. The Exact match option will ignore other categories Google might add.

类别

完全匹配选项 means that if you want to search for Thai Restaurants in any region. If there are not many “Thai restaurants” in the searched area, “Japanese restaurants,” and “Vietnamese restaurants” will also appear in the results. If you do not use the “Exact match” option, all these categories will be found in the scraping result file. If you prefer the “Exact match” option, Outscraper eliminates the others and only adds “Thai restaurant” to the list. It will work only for the EN language and when using a ready-made categories list.

Another additional change is the addition of Brands to the Categories option. Categories will be combined into Google search queries by multiplying with the locations. You can also use “Plain Queries” to create the queries on your own as you would do it on Google Maps site. The list of categories can be found in the dropdown option.

Using Plain Queries

Sometimes Google adds other categories to your searches, please use Filters from Advanced Parameters to get only the exact categories. When using the Plain Queries option you can search for keywords, place IDs, URLs, etc. When using the Plain Queries option, you need to input your search query on Google and copy the URL of the results to the blank space provided by Outscraper.

地点

Selecting Locations: Just like Google Maps having all countries, cities, and regions can be selected in the Outscraper app while creating a task. There is a ready-made list to make the selection easier. If the location is not on the list, you can use the “Custom Locations” option.

Custom Locations: In this option, you can define locations as “zip code + city + country.” It is also possible to use “near Los Angeles, CA, USA”.

Using Zip Codes: 邮政编码应该用于深度扫描和搜刮。举个例子，在纽约的布鲁克林有数百家餐馆。不幸的是，并不是所有这些餐馆都在谷歌地图的搜索结果中列出了一个搜索查询。

Google Maps shows a maximum of 500 restaurants in the results of one search. Since Outscraper also scrapes the search results provided by Google Maps, not all these restaurants will be found in the result file with one query.

这种情况下使用邮政编码。它允许你详细地搜索和搜刮该地区。它用邮政编码和城市的组合生成多个搜索查询。例如。

“restaurant, 11201, NY, US”
“restaurant, 11202, NY, US”
“restaurant, 11203, NY, US”

使用该选项可以在一个区域内的每一个地方进行刮削，而不跳过任何地方。

*Always use the “Delete duplicates” option when you use this option.

限制和选择

Total Results Limt: This option determines the total number of results in the task result file. Even if the potential volume of the task is large, as soon as you set the limit to 100, the scraping process stops when it reaches 100 places. If the limit is set to 0, scraping continues until the end of the task. With 0, there will be no limit in the result file.

Delete Duplicates: 谷歌地图可以在同一搜索结果的不同页面上显示相同的地方/企业。这可能会导致结果文件中出现重复的记录。因为Outscraper提取的是你在谷歌地图上看到的数据。

在第二种情况下，谷歌地图可以在不同的搜索查询中显示相同的结果，而且是不同但相关的类别。搜索 "酒吧，纽约 "和搜索 "餐馆，纽约 "可能显示相同的结果。如果在一项任务中选择了两个或更多的类别，那么在相关类别中出现重复结果的可能性很大。

应选择 "删除重复 "选项以避免这种情况。如果不选择 "放弃重复"，重复的结果将被列在结果文件中，并将被计费。

Ignore Without Emails: This option only applies when the “Emails & Contacts Scraper” service is added. It removes the places without at least one email from the result file. Only places/businesses with emails are listed. This is perfect for those who want to extract emails from Google Maps for email marketing.

* You won’t be billed for ignored records (without having emails).

丰富的服务

Outscraper’s Enrichment Services

We have added some changes in our Enrichment Services which will be best used for cold emails, cold emails, and other enrichment tools. These enrichment services work with Google Maps Data Scraper. These services can be selected from the drop-down list. Each enrichment service has different capabilities and pricing structures.

The enrichment tools that are best for cold emails are Company Insights, Emails & Contacts Scraper, and Contacts Finder. For cold emails, you can select Whitepages Phones Scraper, Phone Numbers Enricher, and WhatApp Checker. The Other Enrichment Services include Trustpilot Scraper and US Companies Data Enricher.

当丰富服务被添加到搜刮任务中时，所有被丰富服务提取的数据都将在同一个结果文件中。

Company Insights: With this enrichment, you can find company details such as revenue, size, founding year, public status, etc.

Emails & Contacts Scraper: This enrichment service allows you to extract emails and contacts through Google Maps. Google Maps Data Scraper first scrapes the general data of places/businesses. This data also includes website information. Emails & Contacts Scraper service uses this website information and extracts email addresses, contact details, and social media accounts from these websites.

Adding this enrichment service to the task activates the “Validate emails,” “Ignore without emails” and “Delete email duplicates” options. The “Validate emails,” will validate the emails while the “Ignore without emails” option ensures that only businesses with an email address are put in the results file. The “Delete email duplicate” option is used to remove businesses from the result file with the same email address.

Businesses with multiple branches have the same website and the same email address. Businesses with multiple branches have the same website, so the same email addresses extracted from branches can be the same. With this option, only 1 record remains and the other duplicates are dropped. Thus, a clean result file is obtained in this way.

高级参数

语言。 谷歌地图可能会因使用的语言不同而显示不同的结果。出于这个原因，Outscraper允许你进行模拟。你可以通过选择不同的语言来创建任务。

Places Per One Query Search: The parameter specifies the limit of organizations to take from one query search. When you are using the query to find a specific place (e.g. “Central Park, NY, USA”) you probably want to use “1” to get the first place (just in case Google will find something else). However, when you are searching for “Restaurants, NY, USA” you might want to extract all the places from your search and use “50”.

Skip: This parameter specifies the number of items to skip. Commonly used in pagination.
